Application Of Five Elements Theory In Traditional Chinese Medicine In Warring States,Qin And Han Dynasties

The Warring States Period,Qin and Han Dynasties was an important period for the development of the five Elements theory,as well as the development of traditional Chinese medicine.In this period,the three theories of the five elements theory,five elements,five elements,five elements,coordination scheme has appeared and taken shape.The Huangdi Neijing,a classic of traditional Chinese medicine,has also been published.The Huangdi Neijing also absorbed and applied the theories of the five Elements theory,and built its own unique medical theory with the help of the five elements theory.Huangdi Neijing first built its own unique image storage system based on the five-element coordination scheme,which are the eastern liver wood image storage system,the southern heart fire image storage system,the central spleen earth image storage system,the western lung gold image storage system,and the northern kidney water image storage system.The book also directly discusses the law of five elements,indirectly expresses the law of five elements,and explains the medical theory based on these three theories.The Huangdi Neijing has skillfully applied the five elements theory and combined it with its own medical practice.Whether it is to build its own unique storage system,or to guide the judgment and prognosis of the disease,or to guide the method of meridian acupuncture,or to guide the law of dietary supplement and medication,etc.,All of them have applied the five-element coordination scheme and the five-element Shengsheng theory to different degrees.The Nanjing,which was later published,inherited the theory of five elements in Huangdi’s Neijing,and on this basis further understood and developed the theory of five elements’ coexistence and five elements’ victory.His original method of "supplementing North and south" and "supplementing and reducing son and mother" shows the deep understanding and application of the five elements Shengsheng theory.In the Eastern Han Dynasty,Zhang Zhongjing’s Treatise on Febrility and Miscellaneous Diseases made some progress in the understanding of the theory of five elements’ phase victory and five elements’ phase development,and further developed the theory of color pulse diagnosis recorded in Huangdi’s Neijing and Nanjing.Compared with the Huangdi Neijing and other handed down documents,although the application of the five-element theory in the unearthed medical bamboo documents is simple and simple,the five-element coordination scheme and the five-element theory have begun to explain the medical theory.Yun Meng’s Bamboo Slips of Qin Tomb in Sleeping Hudi and Suizhou’s Bamboo Slips of Han Tomb in Kongjiapo can see the complete expression of the five-element theory and the construction of a small five-element coordination scheme.Based on the five-element coordination scheme and the five-element theory,the development law of the disease is explained.There is no explicit discussion on the theory of five elements’ coexistence and victory,but the content of its discussion on medical theory is highly similar to that of Huangdi’s Neijing.However,the theory of five elements is the basis behind the discussion of these medical theories in Huangdi Neijing.If the theory of five elements in Huangdi Neijing is substituted into Tianhui Medical Jian,some contents can be corresponded.From this point of view,there is a great possibility that the theory of the five elements has been applied in Tianhui Medical Jane.The three theories of the five elements theory themselves have a process of development.The five elements may have appeared in the early Warring States period at the earliest,and probably been written in the late Warring States period at the latest.The thought of the five elements of the phase has been recognized in the Spring and Autumn Period,and has been fully written in the late Warring States period.The complete record of the five elements of the phase of the theory can be seen in the handed down documents and unearthed slips.The practice of matching five elements with other concepts had already appeared in the early Warring States period.By the late Warring States period,the book Lu’s Spring and Autumn Annals had linked everything together with five points of connection,forming a huge five-element coordination scheme.
